About: We are an energetic family that loves dogs and the outdoors! We know how hard it is to leave your pet so we will take care of them and treat them like one of the family. Our house is dog and kid friendly! We have a big fenced in backyard that is perfect for stick chasing, nose sniffing and tail wagging! Regarding Calendar Availability: Email me with your requested dates even if my calendar says I am not available. I may be able to accommodate your pet! We offer 24 hour supervision for your dogs! Kenny is at home during the day while the children and I are at school. In the evening, the kids and I are home with the pups! All of us love animals so you can be assured that your furry friend will receive lots of attention. Our furry family member, Caesar, is 10 years old. Caesar is good tempered and get a long great with other animals and children! We request that all older dogs visiting us are spayed or neutered to help ensure that everyone gets along! If they are puppies, it normally isn't a big deal. Please send me a message to discuss, we can always do a meet n greet to make sure the dogs get along before their stay. I have my dogs on an oral flea treatment. To help keep all dogs flea free, please have your dogs on a flea treatment prior to their stay. We do go outdoors and although I treat our yard in the spring and summer, I can't guarantee there will be no bugs present. We are happy to make your pet feel at home. They can sleep in their bed, crate, or on our bed. We follow the rules that you do at your home! We follow any diet or exercise restrictions. Let us know what is important to you and we will make it happen. Your dog will have plenty of space to run and play. Or they will have plenty of room to lounge around and rest. I will take them on a walk if they aren't as active because of age, weather, or if requested. In the case of a medical emergency, I live two blocks from a great veterinarian office. Here is a fun video the kids and made of our guests this holiday season! Just go to the YouTube website and type /watch?v=ZHqJj7qknYE after .com Kenny or I are home 24/7. I only work 1-2 days a week out of the home. We follow whatever routine is needed for your pet! We follow any rules you do and treat your pet like a pet of our family! We have a fenced in backyard and only accept one family at a time!
“Ari is great! She was kind, communicative, punctual, and took excellent care of my pups. She is obviously a natural with dogs. We even had a broken collar situation while I was at work and she found the harnesses and made the walk happen. I highly suggest hiring her to care for your animals. Thank you, Ari!”

About: I've cared for many types of dogs and cats for 20 years, and been around them for longer. I love to give your pet exactly what they need when they are in my care; shy furbabies get lots of patience and space, excited ones will get the opportunity to work out their energy! Every pet is different and they have different routines and behaviors. I spend time getting to know what your pet responds well to in order to provide the best experience for them, including when they have anxiety or an abundance of energy. I have a flexible schedule, so I can dedicate time to pet care across the day and week. I'm home to care for my pets usually and can adapt to a routine for care as needed. I will come to your pet's environment and care for them in your home. I find that pets respond well to a new person when in a familiar place with all their food, toys, treats and smells. I understand the vulnerability of allowing someone into your home, and I conduct myself with integrity to match the trust you extend me. I ask for clear boundaries and communication about the care for your pet and allowed spaces in the home which will allow me to respect your home and private areas. I am comfortable cleaning messes because accidents happen when you combine new people, new routines, and anxiety. My intention is always to have you return home to an undisturbed environment and your safe and content pets.
About: I have a huge heart for pets & animals in general - I have been drawn to them since I can remember! Growing up I used to assist our local vet with surgery prep and wound care. I realized I was meant more for the "loving" of animals rather than the "medical care" when vaccinations or other scary things happened - all I could do was comfort the pet! I have cared for almost every kind of pet there is, and I enjoy giving Moms & Dads the peace of mind I know that I need when I am busy or out of town. I work in West Wichita (my office IS pet friendly if your pup has the right temperament) and my hours are Mon-Thurs from 8am-5pm, and Fridays 8am-3pm. This limits my ability for mid-day stop ins during the week, but I am fully available in the mornings, evenings, and all weekend hours. All pet care routines are different! Since the level of care required can vary greatly from family to family, I offer a few different "versions" of each service, and modify my rates according to time/effort committed. Please reach out if you have a hybrid (drop-in/house-sit/boarding) request - if we are a good match I am confident we can find the right arrangement for your pets needs. I recognize that your fluff-butts are part of your family, and pride myself on the ability to make them feel loved and comfortable while in my care. Photos & videos are consistently sent along with scheduled updates - you will NEVER have to wonder if your pet is happy with me! If booking a longer stay, I prefer to iron out all details of your request with an hourly schedule so there is no room for confusion or misunderstanding. It is my first priority to make sure pet parents know that their baby is in the best hands so they can enjoy their time apart.

About: I grew up in a pet loving family, we always had at least 5 fur babies! I loved having the responsibility of caring for them by myself. I would sometimes bring them over to my neighbors for play dates, I could teach them tricks and play with them all day. I am always home or going for walks, and having a pet by my side always makes my day better. From running around outside to laying on the couch watching a movie having a pet with me always makes it so much more fun! No pet is the same, I adapt to what the pet wants. If it’s an energetic puppy i’ll be energetic if, it’s a relaxed elderly pet i’ll relax with it, they all get the care and environment they will need.

About: I’ve been in love with animals for as long as I can remember, I grew up with multiple dogs in my home along with a few cats and fish. I even bought my own dog as soon as I moved out! I currently watch my own dog, my household family pets at my dads, and my household family pets at my moms when they are out of town. I am a full time state licensed esthetician, leaving my schedule to be very flexible. I’m happy to visit your fur babies whenever is best for your schedule, whether that’s feeding, walking, or cleaning your pets while you’re at work or off on a trip. I will gladly send photos or videos updates on your fur babies. I am also happy to play with them using their favorite toys and don’t mind spending extra time for snuggle sessions while I’m there. Again I am a full time online college student and I work a part time job maybe 3-4 days a week mostly night shifts, being 4 pm-closing time. I have family pets and both my moms household and my dad’s household that I’ve cared for when I lived in both homes and while my family is at work or away, plus I also bought my own dog when I moved out which I care for on a daily basis.
About: I’ve been taking care of animals for over 10 years now! I’ve taken care of both Dogs and cats of all sizes! I’ve been dog sitting for years and I have been working at Sydney’s pet resort as a supervisor for 4 years now! I have experience giving all animals medication and will help animals with any medical issues they may have! I have experience working with puppies and senior dogs, as well as kittens and senior cats! I currently work Tuesday through Saturdays but I will work around my schedule to make sure I find time to care for your pets! I am typically free all day on Sundays and Mondays! I am currently not watching any animals in my own home but I am able to watch them in the comfort of their own home!
About: I learned that animals mostly dogs hurting taking care of them was not what I liked to see. My passion is dogs not cats I left the vet and have worked in big box retail stores for 20 years but my love is with dogs. If you need me for dog sitting walking or dropins my avaliability is open this is my full time job. In my spare time attend Life .Church on Sunday and serve as well. I attend a Bible study and just got a new mental diagnosis so im going through therapy. I take care of dogs with tender love and care. I have always loved the dogs i grew up with from labs golden retrievers and shit-zus. I will house set walk drop in visits at your home.
About: I have always been a dog lover, and I love meeting new pooches! I have sat for many dogs over the years, and have recently trained my own service dog named Dolly Parton. She is my best friend and can meet your dog- or not- we're flexible! I work full time days, but my evenings and weekends are typically free for pet care. If needed I can also take an extended lunch break to check on your pet. I am available to play with your pet at your place or a park if they are up for a drive. I am very active, so if your dog wants to go for a walk or a run, I'm ready to work up a sweat!
About: I was raised on a farm my whole life taking care of animals! I have a huge heart for any animal and always enjoy getting to know their different personalities. I have experience with diabetic and senior dogs. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as a stay at home mom. Being home throughout the day allows me to provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship. I enjoy spending time with animals and can easily incorporate their feeding schedules, exercise, and individual needs into my day. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while they’re in my care. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I always follow each owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication (if needed), potty breaks, exercise, and any special routines that help their pet feel comfortable. I make sure pets receive plenty of love, attention, playtime, and supervision while keeping their environment clean and safe. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Valley Center. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
